Rent vs. Buy Calculator

🏠 Should You Rent or Buy? Use the Rent vs. Buy Home Calculator to Decide

Choosing between renting and buying a home is one of the most important financial decisions you’ll make. While buying offers long-term ownership, renting provides flexibility and lower upfront costs. But which option is better for you financially?

To help you make an informed decision, we’ve introduced a Rent vs. Buy Home Calculator—a simple tool that compares the long-term cost of renting versus buying a home.

🔍 Why Compare Rent vs. Buy?

Both renting and buying have their pros and cons:

• Renting offers lower monthly costs, no maintenance responsibilities, and flexibility to relocate.
• Buying builds equity, provides stability, and can be a valuable long-term investment.

However, the financial impact of each option depends on factors like property price, loan interest rate, rent amount, and tenure.
